VIRTUAL TOUR

Up the Creek Farms is a privately owned venue that caters to couples with a wedding vision inspired by southern and coastal elegance.

VENUE MAP

Situated on over eight secluded acres, Up the Creek Farms epitomizes Old Florida’s charm. Classic white post and rail fencing line the property giving a southern plantation feel. Landscaped and manicured flower beds and paths wind around the lawn and the 130 year old Decklan House. Century old oak trees surround, standing tall and stately, Spanish moss draped from their branches. Look anywhere and spot iconic Florida wildlife from singing Scrub Jays to Ospreys and Sand Hill Cranes. Underwater natives living in Goat Creek, an estuary to the Indian River Lagoon include manatees, turtles and countless species of fish. There are many locations to choose for a romantic and intimate wedding ceremony. Set up a game of corn hole on the lawn during cocktail hour. Followed with a Boathouse reception – a barn designed to feel outdoors with great views of the property, with all the amenities you would want for such a special day.

A sensational space for receptions… Walk through the Oak Hammock to the Boathouse. Enter through an open air porch into a 6,000 square foot barn. Exposed wood rafters and two grand sliding barn doors contribute to the rustic character of the space. Crystal chandeliers add the touch of elegance required for a southern wedding. Gaze outside the French Doors to dramatic views of the property. A porch to the east delivers a nice creek breeze. A custom bar is accessible inside and from the porch. Restrooms, catering space, and option to air condition the interior are included.

An 1878 Farmhouse has been lovingly updated as a Bed and Breakfast. Sitting perched on a hill, and up the creek, the two story cracker style home’s southern details boast the character inside and out. The hardwood plank floors are accented with both antique and updated furniture and décor. French doors open to porches on every side of the home to reveal many breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.

With our Exclusive Weekend Package accommodations for up to six guests are available the night prior for the bride and bridal party. Check in is at 3PM and includes three upstairs bedroom suites with private updated bathrooms. Spend the following morning relaxing on the porch enjoying a light continental breakfast. Have the day to prep, get dressed and take pictures throughout the property. Check out is just before the day’s big hour!

Wedding night accommodations are available to the bride and groom exclusively. Breakfast is served to the privacy of your room. Check out is Sunday at 10am.
